CHAPTER2MOUNTING YOUR INTERACTIVE FLAT PANEL

4 smarttech.com/kb/170534

Choosing a mounting locationConsider the following when you select a location for the interactive flat panel:

l The wall must be strong enough to support the interactive flat panel and the mounting

equipment. The interactive flat panel weighs 169.8 lb. (77 kg).

l Select a wall with a flat, regular surface and sufficient clearance to accommodate your

interactive flat panel. Mount the interactive flat panel in a location that’s central to your

audience’s viewing direction.l Choose a location for the interactive flat panel that’s far from bright light sources, such as

windows and strong overhead lighting. IR lighting can cause issues with the performance of

the cameras and can lead to unintentional or missed touches.

For mobile or adjustable installation options, contact your authorized SMART reseller

(smarttech.com/where).

Choosing a mounting heightConsider the general height of the user community when you choose the height for the interactive

flat panel.

The flat panel height is based on the midpoint between the reach of the students and the teacher.

Cable managementWhen you connect cables to the interactive flat panel from a computer and other peripheral

devices, ensure that the cables aren’t a trip hazard. Use channels and raceways to safely secure

and hide cables. Contact your authorized SMART reseller for these accessories.
